Description

Looking for a mouthwatering appetizer, lunch, or dinner idea? This savoury low FODMAP chicken satay will hit the spot!!


Ingredients

Scale

Sweet & Sour Sauce

  • 4 tbsp low FODMAP ketchup
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 3 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1.5 tbsp low sodium soy sauce

Chicken Satay 

  • 2 tbsp fresh Thai or sweet basil, minced
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar, packed
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tsp Chinese 5-spice powder 
  • 1 small fresh pineapple
  • 3 tbsp vegetable oil, divided
  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1/2” strips
  • 2 cups white rice, cooked

Instructions

  1. Pre-heat your BBQ to 425 degrees. If you’re using wooden skewers, make sure to soak them in water for 30 minutes. 
  2. Combine the sweet and sour sauce ingredients in a small saucepan. Bring the sauce to a boil over medium-high. Allow to boil for 1-2 minutes, then remove the sauce from heat and let it cool for 3-5 minutes. 
  3. To make your satay sauce, combine the sweet and sour sauce, fresh basil, brown sugar, and melted butter in a small bowl. Set aside. 
  4. Cut the top and bottom off of your pineapple, then cut the pineapple in half. Cut each half into 4 slices, about 2″ thick. Lightly brush the both sides of each pineapple slice with vegetable oil.
  5. Thread the chicken onto 12-15 skewers. Lightly brush your BBQ with the remaining oil and cook the skewers for 10 – 12 minutes (or until the chicken is no longer pink). While the chicken is cooking, brush the meat with your satay sauce and turn the skewers occasionally. Then, leave them alone for the last 5-6 minutes of cooking. 
  6. Add the pineapple to the grill mid-way through cooking your skewers and cook until they’re warm and grill marks appear. Only turn the pineapple once. Serve the skewers and pineapple as an appetizer, or over white rice as a meal!
